Fursultiamine, also known as thiamine tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide (TTFD) is an oral FDA- approved thiamine derivative for treating vitamin B1 deficiency and is very rapidly metabolized into thiamine. Fursultiamine possesses a mild beneficial effect in patients with Alzheimer's disease. The improvement could be observed not only in their emotional or other mental symptoms but also in intellectual function. Only mildly impaired subjects showed cognitive improvement. In addition was shown, that fursultiamine have a beneficial clinical effect on some autistic children. Some relatively recent experiments have revealed that fursultiamine was a unique antagonist of hepcidin in vitro that could serve as a template for the development of drug candidates that inhibit the hepcidin-ferroportin interaction. This inhibition is a key for the treatment of anemia of inflammation (AI), a common in patients with infection, autoimmune diseases, cancer, and chronic kidney disease.
